New Life (Preview)

School uniform, grey/red, one full set.


One heap of paperwork to sign and return to solicitor in the morning.

One baby with sleep issue, lured into picture with one rattling box of mini smarties, temporarily borrowed from a very heavy Schultüte. To his right: School dress, grey, Tara's choice.

One little girl, 4 years and 6 weeks, asleep among the treats she will receive in the morning. Braids for much coveted wavy hair. Sleeps like a baby, but is, as of tomorrow, 9am, an English Infant School Student.

And so, 7 years and 6 days after arriving in England, we are about to become house owners, and parents of a little girl at an English school. It's crazy, and we're all looking forward to every bit of it.

She looks so beautiful in the sleeping beauty pic! And those gorgeous braids! Awww...
And even the sweets look extremely attractive! Come on, rotten teeth won't distort such a beauty, especially not when she's asleep.

New beginnings are so exciting!
Good luck, Tari!

I'm completely envious of the adorable uniform... (Nirit, you know you are too...) Lucky Tara with all those treats. Lo got a piece of wheat toast with Nutella! Ha ha ha!

Hope she had a great day.

I AM completely envious! Seriously, gray and red. Adorable.
No Nutella at Lia's preschool. Nutella Nazis. Not that she'd eat it. She'd hand it right over to her mom.

So does she like school? I would love any school that requires such adorable uniforms really. And I'll be more than happy to swap my curls for her straight hair!
